I recall visiting a web site a while back that had a Javascript-based
Lisp editor on it. (It balanced parens and indented in a browser
window.) Now I can't find it for the life of me and I was hoping
someone here would have seen it also and know where it was. If you've
seen this beast I would be most grateful if you could point the way.
Many thanks,
rg

BioBike has a simplistic one. JS does the (very simple) paren
balancing, but the indentation is done by Lisp, not Javascript. Try the
demo server from www.biobike.org. It would be pretty easy to improve my
stupid paren balancing algorithm -- I think I spent a whole ten minutes
on it at the time (although I think that JP or PS improved it
somewhat). But I thought that you were ajaxing, in which case why not
just let Lisp do all the work for you?

This isn't the one I'm thinking of. The one I'm looking for balanced
parens by coloring them in with different colored background rectangles.
(It wasn't quite the Right Thing, but I wanted to look at the code to
see how it worked.)

Not really an editor, but http://paste.lisp.org/ colors parens as you
hover over code with the mouse. The code is available via the
`Source'-link at the bottom of the site.

Actually, I was slightly wrong. The BioBike web-based lisp editor is
entirely javascript, including client indentation, but there is a
re-indent function that does "semantic" reindentation that goes through
the server (i.e., is done by Lisp).

That's probably not what you mean, but there is a Lisp applet at
http://cube.misto.cz/lisp/
Depending on your needs, you can probably also use MindTerm to connect
to a server that runs a Lisp process. See

Some time ago I seem to have read about some code Peter Seibel wrote
for Franz. Your description triggers something I read back then about
Peter's code.
I don't have any other info. But if it is indeed that code, you might
try asking Peter.
